Silver Blanks

At one point I wanted to build a Duel Strike Drop Hammer Coin press.
You can see more here http://quicksilvermint.com/about.htm
one of the first challenges was to find a source for blank coins, I was able to custom order some from silver town mint, Silver was currently trading at 16$ an oz when I order them, but they had "job" charges.

So I now have these Blank silver coins and Silver is at 40$ an oz, I have no Duel Strike Drop Hammer Coin press (couldn't ever get steel die cheap enough). So I would like to trade them in for some .999 Fine Silver Rounds I think, once I find them going to ask my local coin dealer about it, They are packed away some where from our last move.

so I found my old order.


(spot 9.42 oz) 1/10 oz = .94

10x 22mm plain both sides .999 silver .94 plus $5.25 Fabrication each = $6.19 x 10 = $61.90
10x 22mm raw .999 silver blanks .94 plus $1.00 = $1.94 x 10 = $19.40
20x 22m shiny bronze plain both sides @ $2.80 ea = $56.00
10x 22m shiny copper plain both sides @ $2.80 ea = $28.00
Shipping Charge = $22.00
Small Order setup Charge = $50.00

Total: 237.3

You can see I paid allot in Fabrication charges, It looks like I should have 20 silver coins 1/10oz each. so they would be worth a total of 80$
